The Ayden is only a 20 minute walk to Princes Street (the main shopping area) and all the city attractions. The Playhouse theatre, Omni multiplex and St James Shopping Centre are all within 10-15 minutes walking distance, as are the many restaurants, cafes and bars along Leith Walk and the Broughton area.
Getting around Edinburgh on foot is very easy and highly recommended – the majority of the main attractions are in the centre within walking distance of each other.
We are also on a main bus route – it is only a 5 minute bus journey to Waverley train station and the city centre in one direction and to the Leith Waterfront in the other direction.
The airport is 12 km from the Centre of Edinburgh. To get to Edinburgh city centre you can either:
This is in the city centre and from here you can either
This is also located centrally and from here you can either walk (15 minutes) or take a bus.
There is free on-street parking on Pilrig Street. Usually there is no trouble finding space to leave your car. Although it is extremely safe to park your car in Pilrig Street don’t tempt fate, bring any valuables and all your luggage in with you - just in case!
If you require further directions please do not hesitate to contact us.
